After Action Report
In Seattle, the Pistons snuck past the SuperSonics 106-101. The SuperSonics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pistons. The SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss; SuperSonics' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
